LOVELY,

Hillary should go visit east Palo Alto and see how the "Other" half lives. Democrats won't do it- Please look at our current President as proof. All his fundraising efforts in the Silicon Valley and not a visit to the end end of University Avenue.

The SLEAZE machine comes to PV. Not since Nixon have we had politicians who are as corrupt as the Clintons. I don't know of any other charity that dispurses only 10% of its receipts to charitable causes.

Secret servers, deleted emails, donations for favorable State Department rulings, influence peddling, etc: sounds more like a criminal operation than a charity.

I think the main reason she's running for Prez is to head off an indictment.

First Katie, if you want to talk about the most corrupt administration in history look no farther than Obummer. And before him the Clinton's, the one you defend so adamantly. Then take a look at FDR and see what he REALLY did. [part removed. Comment without insulting other posters.]

[part removed.] But let me help you with a few of your [part removed] misconceptions.

Just about every democrat Senator voted for the authorization to go to war given to President Bush, including your demi-god Hillary Clinton. I could mention the rest, but the list is to long. Suffice to say that all the who's who of the democrat party that had a vote is on that list.

President Obummer is no saint. He barely recognizes the Constitution of the United State, and is at best apathetic to the religion he professes to be a part of. He also has done more to destroy race relations in this country than the KKK could ever dream to do. Don't you see the monumental wasted opportunity this man had and absolutely squandered in the last 7 years...

And as far as FDR goes, I don't want to give you a history/economics lesson here, [part removed. Please post comments without insulting other posters] you would know that we were pulling out of the depression at the time FDR took office, and his policies worsened and deepened the depression. The best thing that happened to him was WWII.

I don't know where you come up with a second recession. The only recession we are in is the one Obummer started and has perpetuated. The fact is Bush economic policies kept us out of recession after 9/11, and would have kept us out of this one except for the election of the community organizer. [part removed.] You should try expanding your horizons to include something other than left wing dribble.
